Eagles far too good - well done. Killed what little remaining hope we had for 2004.

Polly Farmer, by a long, long way. Superb ruckman, he was perhaps the first player to use handball to attack, rather than just to get out of trouble.

Ain't it a bitch when they start losing AFTER you've registered ? Especially if you now don't know how to jump off one bandwagon, onto another.

Should be a reasonaby warm night this Friday, so no need to bring your jackets this week kids - you'll have no use for em.

This just goes to show that beauty really is in the eye of the beholder. And I guess Ari's comment shows that sex appeal is too.

My expectations aaaand reactions were just about the opposite of this. If anything I underestimated Essendon. Going into the game, I didn't really think we could win, too many players were under an injury cloud, and teams never get away with taht in GF's. During the game though, we were...

Sampi had a run at the ball, got a ride up and took a chest mark (probably took it lower than his chest). Moorcroft had to react quickly, leap and stretch. It was a far superior mark. I can understand peole comparing Tarrant's mark with Moorcrofts, but sampi's doesn't come close.

LOL LOL Priceless ! I had no idea how hard the bluebaggers were doing it.

How sad is this? He's so defeated he's not even contemplating a Carlton victory. Sounds like StKilda is the only team he's confident can beat the bombers and there's no thought of Carlton beating anyone. How the mighty have fallen. God he must be hating it! I almost feel sorry for him.

If you think last years finals are a long time ago.

Me too, haven't watched the tripe since its first season.

Hamill from StKilda would be a chance. Seems to speak well and have a good understanding of the game, would command respect.

There's a God, he was crucified by the media Thursady and Friday, and was resurrected tonight, just in time to kick the last goal and win the game.

No-one if they have to get rid of them just as soon as they do develop, because they can no longer fit under a salary cap.

I understand this may vary from time to time & season to season, but of the seven sports I have listed, which is your favourite TV viewing?

You're wrong about people's reasons for supporting the yankees, Dan. Many, myself included, have developed a soft spot for them by watching the world series, they have been in 6 of the last 8, so we have seen them far more than any other team, that's all. In fact I didn't realise till I was told...

If they were ever to actually start winning, I have a hunch Richmond fans might be the most big-headed and obnoxious fans of all. They're bad enough when finishing ninth.

So do I, and I remember Richmond's reaction which convinced me that they were going no further. I could understand the younger supporters instantly developing big heads, they weren't accustomed to success after all, but I thought SOMEONE on the coaching staff would take hold of the players egos...

I had more luck with Husserl than with Hegel, who I place in the same boat as Heidegger as far as clarity of expression goes. But I prefer analysis. I find phenomenology, existentialism, and idealism completely unconvincing, and somehow self-absorbed. For me, philosophy begins with Frege!

It's a great pity that Aristotle isn't as readable as Plato. It's a great pity that Aristotle isn't readable at all. He is a greater philosopher.

Yeah right , Carlton have only breached once - the year the cap was introduced, and they've never been under it!

Believe me, Adelaide Hawk, no team paces themselves, they are all trying to win as many games as possible, right from the start of the season. And the final 5 wasn't in for that long, before that the finals were between a final four, when finishing second was equal to finishing top.

Clearly, you aren't talking about "Being and Time." And, couldn't Crime & Punishment be described as a page-turner? More so than Joyce anyway, I think. All great literature is unavoidably boring in parts I think, but if perservered with, is ultimately rewarding. Nevertheless there are...

Crime & Punishment is my least favourite of all of Dostoevsky's works. Ulysses won't appeal to many casual readers. And as for the philosophers you mention Stevo,Heidegger is unreadable even to philosophy majors and Quine is too technical for non-philosophers. The philosopher who best...

As we have moved from fantasy to philosophy, allow me to recommend to all who enjoy a "serious" read, a book considered by some to be the pinnacle of literature, "The Brothers Karamazov" by Fyodor Dostoevsky.

The 1984 second semi (or whatever it was then called - winner to the GF, loser to the preliminary) final between Hawthorn and Essendon was a great game, even for an Essendon supporter! Two really good teams playing really good footy. Hawthorn won by a few points. Essendon's comeback against...

All Brett Easton Ellis's early books can be seen as drafts for "American Psycho," have you read it? It wasn't so much written as pasted together from glossy magazine advertisements, but is very cleverly done. A lot would find the violence too distasteful to see any worth in the book, but I...

This argument that players other than Collingwood players are on TFS, therefore it is somehow selective to single out those Collingwood players who appear and accuse the pies of cheating ,shows a lack of understanding of the point, I think. I make no comment on whether it's true or not, but...

C'wood- defeating G-Finalist's ranked This is just a purely subjective off the top of my head ranking of the teams who have defeated Collingwood in the GF in the past 40 years. 1. Brisbane '02 2. Carlton '79 3. Carlton '81 4. StKilda '66 5. Brisbane '03 6.Melbourne '64 7.Carlton '70...
